The Sunday Mail and Courier Mail seem to be in a pattern of producing Galaxy polls of Queensland state voting intention every six weeks or so, and the latest provides no reprieve for a Labor government that seems scarcely more popular than the one south of the border. The Liberal National Party has increased its [...]

The latest fortnightly Roy Morgan face-to-face poll (three days old now, but what the hell), conducted over the previous two weekends, has Labor’s lead increasing still further, from 61-39 to 62-38. Labor’s primary vote is up a point to 51.5 per cent the Coalition’s is down one to 32.5 per cent.
Elsewhere:

Six weeks after a poll timed by the Courier-Mail to catch Labor at an embarrassing moment, Galaxy’s latest 800-sample survey of Queensland voters shows Anna Bligh’s government recovering but still well behind. Labor’s primary vote is 35 per cent, which is up five on the July survey but down seven on the election. The Liberal [...]

No Morgan poll on voting intention this week, although they do have a survey of 687 respondents on carbon emissions trading schemes. Apart from that:
• Paul Henderson’s Labor government has survived today’s no-confidence debate in the Northern Territory parliament, disappointing those hoping for a precedent-setting no-confidence motion and possibly an election to tide them over [...]

The Sunday Mail reports a Galaxy survey of 800 respondents conducted on Thursday and Friday shows a further plunge in support for the Bligh government. Unfortunately, the poll was clearly commissioned to take advantage of a horror week for the government, which is great for generating a headline but very poor form if you’re trying [...]

Shades of the aftermath of the 1993 federal budget in Queensland, where the first state poll conducted in the wake of the government’s announcement of asset sales and abolition of the petrol subsidy has seen a plunge in support for Anna Bligh’s government. The Galaxy survey of 800 respondents shows the LNP opening up a [...]

Reuters Poll Trend is back in business, presumably resuming its old methods of providing a weighted aggregate of results from Newspoll, Morgan and ACNielsen. As such it tells us nothing we didn’t already know, but its trend line is a handy thing to have. The current finding combines three weeks of results and has Labor’s [...]

Seems Morgan are having one of their occasional weeks off. Plenty of federal preselection action to report, as the parties prepare contingencies for a potential early election:
• The Australian’s Michael Owen reports South Australian Labor is finalising its federal preselections, which “senior factional figures” link to a potential early election. Mia Handshin is keen to [...]

So much going on at the moment that it can’t wait for the next opinion poll post:
